                                   FUN PLACES WE HAVE VISITED

Gail and Jim have been very fortunate to visit so many wonderful places and have made 

some very special new friends!  We don't have enough room on our web site to share all the 

40+ states that we have been to in our consulting and training work (not to mention places out

 of the U.S.), but we did want to share a few places that have a special place in our hearts. 

 Enjoy your travels! 

ALASKA 

One of our early business incubator projects was in Fairbanks, where Jim stayed at a beautiful

bed and breakfast from which he could watch the "Northern Lights."  Our SBIR/STTR training

 took us to Anchorage, Alaska  with some of the SBIR Program Managers to teach for a few days; 

we then took the train to Denali Park where we enjoyed a Mama Moose and her baby, and later 

took a boat out of  Seward from which we saw whales, eagles, puffin birds, and ice glaciers. Visit

 the Denali National Park & Preserve (National Park Service) web site for more information.

BERMUDA              

We have visited Bermuda many times and have stayed at different places.  All have been nice, but 

we would like to recommend the Pompano Beach Resort near Gibbs Lighthouse, in Southampton 

Parish.  It offers dramatic ocean views from the main clubhouse and all guest rooms. We 

recommend the plan that includes breakfast and dinner, as the food was very good, reasonably 

priced, and served in a dining room overlooking the ocean (it includes some outside tables from 

which uncouth people like Jim could throw dinner rolls to the fish waiting below).  It is on its own 

private road well away from all the noise of traffic, so it offers peace and tranquility. Be sure to

 rent a moped so you can see this beautiful country "up close and personal."  Click here for more 

info on the Pompano Beach Club.

S-BAR SHEPHERD RANCH, REED POINT, MONTANA

Treat yourself to a Montana ranch experience. This secluded working sheep ranch is nestled in 

the foothills, of Montana's breathtaking Beartooth Mountains. It is located near both the

 Yellowstone and Stillwater rivers or, if you navigate on the basis of towns, it is roughly half 

way between Bozeman and Billings. An ideal place for the vacation or retreat of your dreams 

with a fully equipped guest house at very reasonable rates. Consider bringing the kids for 

"lambing season" for an experience they won't soon forget.   Maggie Julson is owner and

"host extraordinaire" and will make your stay at her ranch very memorable!  

SOUTH T-BAR RANCH   CANON CITY, COLORADO 

This is our little get away, nestled on a 6,000 acre ranch between Canon City and Hartsel, Colorado. 

 We love it for its abundant wildlife, panoramic views that include Pikes Peak and the Collegiate 

Range, and the still quiet of the wilderness that you can experience but not readily describe.  The 

ranch is divided into 35+ acre parcels available for purchase at prices that you'll never find in

 Aspen, Durango, or the other "hot spots" of Colorado.  For more information, check out 

South T Bar Ranch Property Owners Association.  

             That's the backside of Pike's Peak        Oh give me a home, where the buffalo roam, and

                                                                             the deer and the antelope play...

Beautiful aspen trees, and elk herds that graze on them....
